I'd buy that shirt.

I thought about doing that before, but it did not want to because it just seemed kind of like a dick thing to do for people who didn't like it.

Also I'm sorry this OP isn't that good, it kind of surprised me that we needed a new thread so quickly.

Langly

i really liked the quick look for far cry 3 and I hope that the plot twist they were discussing really happens.

Moriveth

I would probably feel bad if someone did actually make a Persona themed OP

But I would laugh at first

Brad has previously been trying endlessly to get the achievement for that level where you complete it on the hardest difficulty. Before his he played it for several hours before giving up and this was his last shot before putting it to rest finally.

What makes it especially amazing is that this was the end to their 8 hour live show, and the Chariots of Fire theme was totally improvised by Vinny during the run, without knowing whether or not Brad would make it.

since we've had drew do a spookin with scoops, I propose an exchange where patrick does a flight club

call it

swoopin with scoops

Scudo

since people mentioned LOTRO in the last thread, I'd just like to say that was one of my favorite games because the way it let you play music with the in game instruments really created a fun sense of community, with players gathering around the crafting hall all jamming on their lutes.

it's also the source of one of my favorite moments: LOTRO let you create family ties with other players, including adopting them. I usually played with my brother, and he was ALWAYS trying to adopt me. he'd try to sneak it up on me, like when I was browsing my inventory I'd suddenly get the pop up "[Name] wants to adopt you. Y/N." I usually managed to click no, but once, in the middle of combat, with me trying to select an enemy, up pops that fucking prompt and I accidentally clicked Yes.

he immediately set his title to display as "[Name], Father of Scudo" and kept it like that for the rest of the time we played LOTRO (several months, at least)

Is it still a tossup whether they'll cover the end of City of Heroes?

He should also do mystery/investigation games like LA Noire and other point and click adventures

Syndicate is shaping up to be my GOTY, as I play through the campaign.

It's got a visceral feeling that I really like, and the agressive ass AI I've fought so far is pretty good at keeping me on my toes.

Plus I love cyberpunk and FPSs

Medium Dave

Syndicate was really good. I liked the campaign of The Darkness 2 a little bit better, but Syndicate hate brain hacking, so that was cool.

Scolbert

is there any reason to listen to the goty stuff or is just arguing about which video game is the big vidoe game forever?

BlankZoe

So I think I know why Uncharted 3 is my favorite of the series. It uses every bit I love about it and discards the parts I don't. I think the best stories in the series are Nate and Sully's relationship and Nate and Elena as a couple. And I really don't like Chloe nearly as much as Elena and the mystic subplots, while not an inherently bad thing, were always way too ridiculous and goofy.

So UC3 which has a minimal amount of Chloe and a pretty restrained magical maguffin and also focuses on Nate andSully's history and giving a firm answer on Elena in Drake's life was basically designed to appeal to me.

Then again Last Crusade is my favorite Indiana Jones flick so maybe it is something about third installments in pulpy adventure series.

Also Charlie was a fantastic addition to the cast.

The GOTY podcasts are always among the best Bombcasts of the year, at least the big Game of the Year ones are.

BlankZoe

They are less a THIS GAME IS BEST podcast and more a really interesting year in review

Scolbert

oh good

cuz people ranking their favorite things is probably down there with reddit w/r/t podcast topics

BlankZoe

The only time it really gets down to heated arguments is the final GotY award and they are always really quality debates

Moriveth

I haven't listened to the GOTY podcasts the last few years

Mostly cause I don't care about the overall winner, more about what each person picked for their personal lists

Also my GOTY is Bulletstorm, all year every year

SCREECH OF THE FARG

Goty will come down to a heated battle between diablo and mass effect obviously

DouglasDanger

i can't even remember what games i bought this year
dark souls
assassin's creed 3
...

brink and saints row 3 were 2011, right?

Death of Rats

Do any of the Giant Bomb folks smoke cigarettes?

exist

Ryan does! I saw him do it at PAX. I was blown away

exist

Also Brad says he does, but only in Japan.

exist

I think Vinny might or might have too? Can we get a confirmation on that please?
